Platinum and Gold Donors - LAST DAY

[RunInRed 16,360]

If you want to get access to The Nest and help support the site, now is the time to do it.  On January 1, 2023, we're going to consider all donors to date "founding members" who are grandfathered in at current contributions requirements: Gold: $50+ | Platinum: $100+.

Starting January 1, 2023, Gold Donor status will go up to $150 and Platinum Donor status will go up to $300.  The reason for this is two-fold: 1.) To maintain a certain level of exclusivity with those donors who care most about this site and respect what we've built with this community ... at current pricing, the barrier to entry is low enough where it doesn't fend off the driveby fans.  2.) As our costs and this site are scaling, we want to be financially positioned to continue to grow.

The good news, you have 30 15 10 5 4 3 2 1 day to jump aboard at current rates.

Become a Donor!

Lastly, just let me state, I think you'd be very hard pressed to find a single donor, of our 300+ already, who would say their contribution has not been more than worth it.  

Our Platinum, Gold and Silver Donors

[wareagleguy 1,393]

I don’t always donate, but when I do, it’s to AUFamily! 
 

But seriously, we’ll worth it, if you can do it. Great interaction (mostly! 😁) and good info!

Plus, you get helpful tips for shopping at Cosco, which I find helpful, even though I never shop there. Also, good food, drink, and life tips! 
 

But, again, in all seriousness, it is a worthwhile investment. 

[WDE_OxPx_2010 5,287]

Please, for the love of the deity of your choice, pay this man some money to support his Costco habit. His wife thanks you.

 

Added: for only $50, you too can have several guaranteed friends online! What's not to love?

I’ll echo @wareagleguy’s sentiments. As much as I have been on this site over the years, I figured it the least I could do.

Plus there is a pretty sweet recipe derail thread over there. Somewhere….

[Tiger Refuge 6,660]

I almost forgot, on one thread, there is a picture of a senior citizen wearing donut print pants just waltzing right into a certain chain store. Some claim it looks like a certain AUFamily admin. It’s kinda like that game Where’s Gol….Waldo.

 

Who knows?

Your kids may have never done anything good for you. The best you can do for them is pinch some of their college fund and join. 

[aubie57 119]

Just do it.

UPGRADE: Platinum Donor -- THANK YOU @ellitor for your GENEROUS support and for all you do for this site!

I'm already a Gold Member, "Yah Baby" (Austin Powers). I think I'm going to go ahead and jump to Platinum before year's end!!!

@RunInRed It's definitely worth it!!!

WAR EAGLE!!!!!

Are these one-time donation requirements or annual?  Enjoy the site but now just look at "The Next" and "Basketball" Boards.  Found this post because wanted to see what you have posted lately.

One-time.  A bargain, right?!  

Unless you feel obliged for ongoing support of any amount!

I will move up to new Platinum level.  This will be triple platinum now, right? 😁Enjoy the site.  Appreciate you and the mods efforts and time.

Thanks. Had to reregister to donate. Originally came over with The Auburn Eagle merger. Been lurking for years. Figured I needed to support.

WOWOW What an EXTREMELY GENEROUS donation from au1985.  THANK YOU for your ongoing support of this site! 🤝

[au1985 55]

Based on time I spend on the site, the cheapest entertainment per minute I know.  Thanks.

I'm a cheap scrooge type and there's no buyers remorse for me.

[RunInRed 16,360]

WHOOOOAAAAA I don’t even know what to say other than THANK YOU — BLOWN AWAY — @AU_Canoe with the largest single donation we have received yet to date.  Humbled. Grateful for the support of this site. 🤝
